Large transient data set.
 
Hi all, Im having real difficulty trying to get my results from a fluent. I have a time step count of about 800 hundred, and i am looking for velocities at specific points along my domain. I have went about this by creating a ASCII solution exports at the points of interest. However am only able to access them one by one in matlab. Does anyone know a quicker way to go about my problem? any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

One method would be to run a EXECUTE_AT_END UDF which saves these velocities at your selected locations to a text file which can then easily be imported to MATLAB.

Use the thread_loop_c and begin_c_loop_int loops and then an if statement to restrict the region of interest.

Will try that, Cheers.

anyone else struggling with this, an alternate method is to create a solution monitor which can be imported directly to excel
